Zedel

[Marmora Man]

Just a note to say that I had a great pre theatre dinner at this, relatively, new brasserie near Piccadilly Circus. It had a great buzzy atmosphere, fantastic service, a fairly small and affordable menu of brasserie classics.

Asanadded bonus there was a pianist and, later, there was to be a jazz singer in a small adjacent bar with stage and also a properly dark and romantic cocktail bar.

Give it a go - they deliberately keep a number of tables unreserved for walk ins.

agree, it's very nice, a worthy successor to the old Atlantic Bar and grill that used to occupy the same spot

Where in East Dulwich is it? Or is this just a paid advert?

If you were to read the post it's in Piccadilly Circus - hence posting in the Lounge as a matter of interest not related to East Dulwich. I make the remarkable assumption that those of us that live in / near East Dulwich occasionally venture outside its confines.

As for it being a paid advert - buck up. I've been posting on here for > 4 years with nary a hint of a paid nterest.

MM you've been outed.

Very clever all that posting on all those subjects, in anticipation of a bar opening on Piccadilly (one day) so you could plug it. And you've been OUTSIDE ED ??!

Don't be a plank, TopTree!

Have to say that jazz piano over dinner sounds like my idea of hell, but am very much applauding MM for his awareness of life beyond the environs.

Actually, I'm moving to Denmark Hill at the weekend, so not sure if I'll still be able to post...

['bout now]

Zedel is very good. A 2 course meal for 3 with a couple of glasses of wine for ?60. It's run by Chris Corbin and Jeremy King. Just don't expect to bed in for the long run.

The food sounds great, but yeah... tinkling jazz piano... not good.

Don't worry, you'll be fine, there are plenty of us SE5 dwellers here. You're even getting the hang of the local lingo ("Denmark Hill" sounds so much more pleasant than "Camberwell").

Agree Zedel is great. It's a really impressive space and the food is good and really reasonable. (I am not Monsieur Zedel!)

No I'm Monsieur Zedel

For the most part jazz has no place in public. I do like a bit of trad though, the sort of thing they were playing in that "Dacing on the edge" series on BBC recently.
